Abstract	Freedom for most of the 4 million enslaved Black Americans in the United States was not granted when Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863. Freedom came about in numerous ways and at different times. The status of Maryland's enslaved population was not decided until October 1864, when a statewide referendum on a new state constitution was held. This instructional resource for high school students and preservice art educators tells Maryland's emancipation story and grapples with questions of how commemorative art shapes historical memory. By investigating Joan Gaither's "Sesquicentennial 1864 Maryland Slave Emancipation Quilt" (2014a) and Thomas Ball's "Freedmen's Memorial" (1876), the resource helps show how visual and material culture have both obscured and illuminated narratives of freedom for Black Americans.
